Tomorrow we start writing 2008. I don't know where the time has gone. I just got use to writing 2007. With the New Year comes resolutions...things such as: weight loss, eating healthy, exercising, saving money, spending more time with loved ones, or just spending more time pampering yourself.
I think very often people make the same resolutions they made the previous year. Weight loss is a big one. The number of obese/overweight people in the world is still on the rise. It only makes sense more people are going to make resolutions to get those extra pounds off.
For those that have tried and have had little or know success, take a look a what you have tried in the past. You know what hasn't worked. Try something new. Four things I feel that will make a weight loss journey successful is:
1. Document what you eat/drink and the time. You may be a "clock" eater.
You may be a "tv" eater. (EX: A certain time or show comes on and it
triggers you to eat.)
2. Increase your water intake. Drink 8/10 glasses of water per
day. (It helps to flush your system and gives you a full
feeling.)
3. Set short and long term goals for yourself. (EX: Start by
walking 15 minutes a day and increase it to two 15 minute
walks per day.)
4. Have a good support system. (EX: Include family, friends,
weight loss enthusiasts, and other weight loss bloggers.)
Many will join you on your journey...good healthy competion
is always a good motivator.
Whether you have 10 pounds or a 100 pounds to lose, incorporate these four things into your program and you will be successful. Remember, a healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week.
